You’ll find a bend
In the road ahead,
Should you intend
Muse in its stead,
Thus so to ponder
If you have stock,
Suffice grants a stay
Affords a fading clock,
Extends reach yonder…
If fate finds lend
This road gives way,
To live beyond
Prescribed advent,
Thinks worth amend
To this found journey,
Held a memorable stay
Though an hour or a day,
Portend shades of an instant!
Will I be there
As I intend,
With ample time
For a lost friend,
He of a mind
Did one day pen
Might find amends…
I seek to find,
Not in a state
To care too late ,
But wits aware
To so repair,
Purpose aligned
Those years ago,
Since undermined…
Tho life bids want,
Care but suggests
To not long dwell
The depths of hell,
Save there be more
Of lived before,
A friendship set adrift
Yet not quite vanished!
I’ve want to find
But simple words
Held be accessible,
Though at times
May fail to rate
Idea of equitable,
To compose state
Complex in thought,
That fosters lend
Worth contemplate,
Cause means intend
Reason perceived
Despite a mindful bend,
Bar should frustrate,
Appeal to intellectuality!
I’ve a want to find
The fabric said to tell,
Intends the gift of life,
Hence image as well
That wouldst define,
The inclusion of its hell…
Tho close I realize
This gift to prize,
Be less than easy
To describe,
In simple terms,
For youth’s acuity
Reasons life a gift
Be but a given right,
So to assert saves need
Expose as vital deed,
Thus so on any term…
Since I’ve long lost
A once pubertal vision,
The constant I so yearn
Holds eager to discern
Complete, this gift of life,
Alas in simple terms!
